Hi James,

I have to be brief but hope it helps anyway:

1. setup a WebSite entity with domain and webSiteId

2. configure you webapp like this

     <webapp name="mySite"
         title="mySite"
         app-bar-display="false"
         server="default-server"
         location="webapp/mySite"
         mount-point="/">
         <virtual-host host-name="www.mySite.com"/>
         <init-param name="webSiteId" value="mySite"/>
     </webapp>

3. Configure your web server with a virtual host and ServerName
www.mySite.com

4. Add ProxyPass with AJP protocol to virtual host configuration

ProxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009/
ProxyPassReverse / ajp://localhost:8009/

5. disable the http/https connectors of Tomcat


Hope I did not forget anything important.

Hi James,

web server means Apache httpd or nginx and alike. There is also a
virtual host concept in Tomcat which I do not know in detail.

Michael

Hi James ,

We use a "frontend" apache that "ProxyPass" es to backend tomcat .
it is possible to configure N number of virtual hosts on frontend proxying
to the backend .


It is also possible to use virtual hosting on both the servers (frontend
apache)
and backend (tomcat) , in that case you can keep ProxyPreserveHost On
in case of apache.

Such an arrangement helps in scaling as a light weight frontend server
can be spawned in large number of processes or threads but not the
heavyweight backend.

it certain scenarios, such a setup helps in management of SSL certificates
also.
